Eric Kriss of
Kriss Motors has published an extensive
commentary on the state of Lithium Iron Phosphate battery production in China. The paper touches on the
recent news of legal battles surrounding Winston Chung, referred to as the “father of the Chinese LiFePO4 industry”, as well as the relationships between Sky Energy Company, Thundersky, CALB, International Battery, New Energy Company, Sinopoly Battery, Balqon, Winston Battery and others. Production capacity and cost estimates are developed based on survey of public information. In addition, the
appendices available here include 230 pages documents, illustrations and data sheets for several large format prismatic cells.
